Okay, it's not a biker bar.  It's a bar/restaurant ABOUT bikes.  With a Harley-Davidson theme, Buffalo is decked out with all kinds of Americana stuff, from license plates and an old Rockola juke box to a ten foot replica of an old Eastern Airlines prop plane hanging from the ceiling. 

Great gig, but we almost didn't get there:

We're driving along, enjoying the scenery.  Beautiful mountains, winding road, we go over a hill top and are looking at the mountains in the distance.  

Suddenly, Guzz screams "Look out!"

Things happened very fast after that.  A car was blocking the road, making a left hand turn - but not turning, even though he had a clear path.  Rich immediately realized that if we hit him, he'd be dead.  Our big truck would crush him in an instant.  He pumped the brakes, and managed to avoid a collision somehow, and steered into a ditch along the side of the road.  There were two bikers behind us, and the first managed to avoid us, the stopped car, and make it through.  The second didn't quite do it, and ended up laying his bike down.  He didn't hit anything, but seemed to have skidded out while maneuvering.  He only snapped off his side mirror, though, and wasn't hurt.  He was furious at the stopped car, as were we.  It turned out the car was full of ceramic roofing tiles, and the driver didn't want to dislodge anything by turning "too quickly".  Instead, he almost caused an accident that would have surely killed him, as well the the bikers behind us.  Only Guzz's warning and Rich's quick reaction and driving skills prevented a tragedy.  We got out of the ditch with no damage, after a little coaxing and some help from a local farmer.

We got to the gig on time, and had a blast.  There was a table of kids next to the stage that stayed all night, cheering for every song.  The owner was a friendly, happy guy who made sure we had whatever we needed (juice, beer, water, wine, food - whatever).  Lots of fun, and great sound thanks to Damon, our sound man.

Tomorrow's gig is weather dependent.  If it's raining, then tonight was our last gig.  If not, we have to get up early and hit the road, because it's an outdoor afternoon concert.
